Welcome to Penicuik Meeting's website

 

The next Penicuik Meeting for Worship is at 11am on Sunday 1st December.  

 

Penicuik Meeting normally takes place on the first Sunday of every month between 11 am and noon at Valleyfield House, 17 High Street, Penicuik, Midlothian, Scotland, and is followed by tea, coffee and (often) a bring-and-share lunch.  Valleyfield House is through the pend or archway on the High Street – car parking is available in the grounds All members, attenders and those curious about Quakers and Quaker meetings are most welcome.  There is usually not a specific children’s meeting but we are delighted to see children and young people and will try to arrange activities for any present).

 

There are usually between five and fifteen present at Meeting for Worship, but we can easily accommodate more. 

 

The meting room is on the first floor and is accessed (via stairs) through the front door and up a staircase but wheelchair access is possible through another entrance.  We strongly advise you to notify us in advance if you need disabled access.

Covid and in-person meetings

 

You can attend Quaker Meetings for Worship in person in all parts of Britain. We can also hold events such as weddings, funerals and social activities, all of which are part of the life of Quaker communities.  All Covid legislation in Britain has been removed.

 

However, we still need to ensure that Quaker meetings are safe spaces for those who attend who are most at risk from Covid or any other virus and to ensure caution and care for our communities.

 

Facemasks are not necessary at the moment, but of course you can wear one if you want.
